car looks great mate on the rollers, just seen your power curve on AS, it is smooth where the torque curve dips a bit but that is a charactistic of all 2.2s i think.

Mark_Dj

Cool, I did not understand the graph at all lol. It's my first ever time on any rollers 😃

I bet you used a bit petrol doing the rolling road, how do they do the measurement? Do they red line the engine in every gear? Do you have to sign a disclaimer in case it all goes wrong.

Mark_Dj

Not sure mate, he just asked me if I wanted to red line it and I said yes. Not sure if they did that in every gear though notsure.gif

no they don't red line it in every gear. they normaly accelerate gently untill they get into 4th gear and when in 4th gear then they floor it untill they reach therev limiter.

well thats what they did to mine anyway.

oh and nice video there Mark.

Cheers Andy. I noticed they only took my car to 101 Mph, is that normal, some of the V6 Vectras that day went to about 123 mph notsure.gif
